# SharedKey vs 1Password

The clearest difference is rating: 1Password at 4.7 against SharedKey's 2.7. 1Password also leads on review sentiment (39% vs 0%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). SharedKey's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1Password sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. SharedKey asks for nothing beyond the download.

1Password holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1Password has 38K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of SharedKey's written reviews are positive against 39% of 1Password's.

SharedKey ships an update every 4 months, 1Password fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
